Imagine only paying 11p for a pint of beer.<\/p>\n
It sounds like the stuff dreams are made of and I think even the most recession-hit parts of the UK could have a good time on those prices.<\/p>\n
The recipe dates back to 1825 and was created by ale lover Thomas Denton as he attempted to discover the taste of his favourite tipple, London Porter.<\/p>\n
Some 4oz of hops, 7lb of treacle and several gallons of boiling water will make 72 pints of stout.<\/p>\n
Sam Bartle, who works at East Riding’s archive service, noted there is no way of knowing how strong the alcohol will be once finished.<\/p>\n
"Following the recipe would produce a huge amount of beer. For it to be tried in most modern homes it would probably require some scaling down of the quantities," he added.<\/p>\n
I'm sure I'm not the only person who is tempted to give this a go, as the savings would be immense.<\/p>\n
